A simple construction of Heat Kernels and conformal anomalies via Fedosov deformation quantization
Thomas Basile, Evgeny Skvortsov
We propose a new approach to the systematic computation of the heat-kernel expansion and, in particular, of conformal anomalies, based on Fedosov deformation quantization. The appr…

Closed string trajectories from a new "tiling"
Thomas Basile, Chrysoula Markou
Based on an efficient technology for the excavation of entire open string trajectories of physical states, we propose an algorithmic method of constructing the largely unknown clos…
